The Monolith Entrance | Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | Walkthrough, Gameplay, No Commentary, 4K

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 plunges players into a world steeped in the elegance and foreboding of Belle Époque France, where an annual curse known as the Gommage threatens to erase humanity. Each year, a mysterious entity called the Paintress marks a number, and all individuals of that age vanish into smoke. This grim cycle has steadily decreased the number, pushing Expedition 33, a group of volunteers from the isolated island of Lumière, on a desperate mission to confront and destroy the Paintress before she reaches the terrifying number 33. The game artfully blends turn-based combat with engaging real-time actions, allowing players to dodge, parry, and strategically target enemy weaknesses, crafting unique character builds from a roster of six distinct heroes, each with their own rich skill trees and gameplay mechanics. The Monolith stands as the apex of this perilous journey, a colossal structure that houses the source of the Gommage and serves as the ultimate goal for Expedition 33. Accessing it requires the use of a special Barrier Breaker, opening a path after crucial preparations at the expedition camp. Upon entry, players are met with a somber, candlelit passage, purposefully devoid of immediate threats, building a palpable sense of anticipation for the confrontation to come. The initial encounter with the Paintress within the Monolith's confines is designed as an unwinnable battle, a narrative device that forcibly draws the party into the structure's corrupted depths. Inside, the ascent through the Monolith is a harrowing gauntlet. The environment itself transforms into a dynamic challenge, with color periodically draining from the world, amplifying the sense of decay and danger. The expedition traverses grappling points across chasms, faces empowered versions of familiar foes, and unlocks "Paint Cages" by finding and destroying hidden locks, rewarding them with vital items. The journey is punctuated by visits to "Tainted Regions," surreal and more dangerous echoes of previously explored areas. These distorted locales, such as the Tainted Meadows, Tainted Waters, and Tainted Sanctuary, introduce new enemy types, optional boss rematches, and hidden treasures, all while escalating the peril. This ascent culminates at the Tower Peak, where a challenging rematch against Renoir precedes the final, climactic confrontation with the Paintress herself, aiming to finally break the deadly cycle of the Gommage.
